Description
My story starts and ends at railway stations though of course I cant know this yet as I clamber off the boattrain at Victoria that warm May afternoonGrowing up in a strict religious family in the 1920s Annie Lang is witness to disturbing events that no one will explain Only the family dog may know the answersSix years on student Annie returns from France to find her beloved brother in a mental hospital and her ally the Sunday school teacher vanished without trace With the help of her childhood diary and sister Beatrice Annie turns detective to unearth the truthHer journey leads to a discovery so disturbing that she believes it will ruin all their lives unless they can atone for the pastRos Franey beautifully captures that point when a child can sense and indeed dissent against secrets that adults think they are too young to grasp Impulsive brave and lovable Annie Lang is formidable when she takes matters into her own handsThe stamp of real talent and a writer who has a genuine feel for her craft The Times
